    They’ll never admit it. In fact, they’ll claim they knew it all along.

      Nah I’ll admit it, I was entirely wrong in thinking Biden should stay in the race. Though I could say I was worried another person than kamala would take their place I had essentially no faith in her ability at the time either.

      Now look at where we are. Finally, some good fucking hopium. I’m very glad to be wrong

      I’ll admit I was wrong. I thought any democratic candidate would be in a weaker spot if Biden withdrew, including Harris.

      Harris did an excellent job of consolidating the party behind her, something I’m extremely grateful for.

      Fuck that, I was wrong.

      I believed the DNC would not change candidates, and as such, I firmly believed Biden should get the vote. I believed since Biden had indicated he would run, that he would be the candidate.

      I’m happy Harris is in.

      All that matters is trump doesn’t win. Vote for Harris.

      What I’ve argued a lot about here is third party, or staying home.

      Depending on where you live, doing anything but voting for [democrat] (whoever it is) implicitly helps trump, due to basic game theory in an outcome constrained system.

      In the future I’d love to talk election reform and building more progressive candidates, but that’s not this election.

      I was wrong. I didn’t think we had the time to find a good alternative, and I definitely didn’t think Harris could be competitive. Happily eating crow! She and her campaign have been amazing!
